We retired at 10:30 to be woken by young people in the unit next door. After a while they left only to return at 3:30 AM and start to party (including sex noises). Then started talking on their cell phones loudly enough to keep us awake. They quieted after I banged on the wall but we could still hear them... More

I didn't need bells and whistles so the motel suited my needs perfectly, I was in Whangarei on business so I was out early back in late, Motel was always clean and tidy, decent sized room but oddly shaped. Close to supermarket, takeaways and restaurant.

Booked on line so there is always a "moment" on arrival to see reality. It was as imagined. Managers were very obliging. Unit OK for the dough. This is not the Ritz but everything functions. I had a rear unit so it was quiet. In house breakfast, very good. It is nice to have restaurants & supermarket close by too.... More

A reasonably basic no frills motel. Clean comfortable. Good TV service. Nothing flash so don't come here if you want a touch of extra comfort.Rooms a wee bit small. Hard to see at night when they turn the sign off

Stayed at the Motel when passing through Whangarei and found it to be good quality, affordable and close to all the shops and conveniences which made it even more likeable

As my husband was having an op at Kensington Hospital and I didn't have the car I wanted to be able to walk to the shops and cafes. It took only a few minutes to walk into town. I chose Motel Six after reading other reviews. The units are quite spacious, and unusually shaped. The furniture and fittings are not... More

This is not one of the best motels in New Zealand, but quite cheap, clean and room was large, right in the heart of Whangarei supermarket 2 minutes walk.

We stayed here for two nights in Jan this year. We had an upstairs unit separate bedroom and full cooker. The unit was very quiet and very clean. Towels changed each day eventhough we followed instructions on what to do if we were prepared to re-use! We were in New Zealand for a month and stayed mostly in motels and... More

I stayed here with my son in a one bedroom unit. Check in was good and we were given a bottle of milk - far better than those little plastic singles! The rooms in our unit were spotless - the kitchen benches gleamed. TV in lounge only and not a lot of space in the lounge/bedroom/dining area but adequate for... More

We stayed at Motel Six recently for two nights recently. We found the rooms clean and the staff friendly, Great restaurant down the road worth a visit - KILLER PRAWN.
